The One (And Only) Shirt You Should Actually Steal From A Bachelorette Contestant

by MR Magazine Staff

We would never intentionally tell you to dress like a Bachelorette contestant, because the vast majority dress like college seniors and do things like sweat through their dress shirts every chance they get. But if TV’s most eligible bachelors have shown us one thing throughout the show’s tenure, it’s that henley shirts can be flattering, provided you have the classic Ken doll build that T.V.’s most eligible women tend to go for. The combination of a button placket and the soft cotton fabric—cut slim to accentuate a man’s arms and shoulders of course—is enough to get these guys through a rose ceremony. And they can be just as flattering when the sleeves are cut short. But before you go and buy two dozen, henley wearers should be warned that when it comes to menswear, a little sex appeal goes a long way. Wear it too tight or show off too much man cleavage and instead of looking stylish and sexy, you’ll just look thirsty. So stick to crisp solid colored cottons that are fully opaque and you’ll be in the clear (steer clear of anything that looks like pajamas or is too silky that people can see your nipples). Here are nine we recommend. See more at GQ.
